SOVIET STAND ON RELIGION IS RASBI'3 TARGET Goldman Hits Opposition to Freedom of Conscience/ RV DANIEL M. KIDNEY American religionists mi.wto the p-iint in their nrotest against relivjous in Russia bv not, emphasizing 'hr rieht, of freedom of conscience. This was the viewpoint advanced Yr Solomon Goldman. Ch:cpzn in the open forum discussion which followed his lecture at Kirshfcaum Community Center Sunday night. Rabbi Goldman toured Russia Ip- than two vears ago and recently refused to join with Rabbi Stephen F Wise and others in protesting al-le'-ed Red relieion.s persecution. Not Touched in Protest "The Russian orthodox church is the sea’ of monarchical machinations," Rabbi Goldman explained. ••Tt is also ani-Communist, in that It oppo" all mechanical progress b’ the most. primitive superstition. Ru* the Soviet government absolutely is opposed to any freedom of conscience, although this was not touched upon in the protest, inspired bv the pope throughout the western world. Tt. is the one point on whieh I am unalterably opposed to Communism ’Communism in Russia is based on the m .ierialistic conceptions of Karl Mh-x. which should have passed with Marx’s death and did die elsewhere in the world twentyfive years ago.” Opposes Modern Materialism Although Rabbi Goldman advocated ’’scientific procedure” as the ceremony and hope in man as the worship for a modern liberal credo, he opposed modern materialism, as such, in his talk on “Have the Liberals Program or the Religion of Modern Man.” Rabbi Goldman was introduced by Rabbi Milton Steinberg of Beth El Zedek Hebrew congregation, who termed the visiting rabbis creed “Orthodox Goldmanism ” The event closed the fourth annual open forum lecture series held for the general public under auspices of the Jewish Community Center Association. PAY BOOST IS SOUGHT Eugenics Society Asks Raise in Pay of Ministers for Each Birth. Bv Time* tipet i<ll NEW HAVEN. April 7. Not a bonus for every child in the ministerial home, but a system of graduated yearly increases in salary for each birth, is what the American Eugenics Society stands for, the Rev. Henry S. Huntington said here today. Mr. Huntington, chairman of the society’s committee on co-operation with clergymen, explained that there was an apparent misunderstanding in the public mind as to what course the society recommends for increasing the number of children in the families of clergymen—an increase which. it holds, would prove beneficent to the race, because recent studies have shown the offspring of minuisters were of uniformly better than average quality.

Halitosis makes you unpopular

If you are not as popular as you wish to be. look for the cause. Possibly it is halitosis (unpleasant breath)— the unpardonable social offense. It is impossible for you to tell when you have halitosis. It never announces itself to you. The one w r ay to be sure of not having it is to rinse the mouth systematically every day with full strength Listerine especially before meeting others.

End it with LISTERINE kills 200,000,000 serms in 15 seconds (Fastest time science has recorded accurately)

TRACK RAISING TO BE TALKED Mayor to Discuss Closing of Bluff Road. Details of a plan to close Bluff road in connection wtih the south side track elevation project is to be sifted by Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan at a conference today with the w’orks board and city council works committee. The 1925 agreement between the board and the Belt railroad provides for joining of Bluff road to Meridian street, south of the proposed elevation. Several south side organizations have fought the program. City officials contend it is unwise to construct two overhead bridges within a few hundred feet, and point out that any change in the agreement will cause a delay of months. Meridian street will be widened to seventy-eight, feet under the thoroughfare plan. The ultimate intent of the city Is to extend Bluff road along the east bank of White river after it is straightened, coming into the city on West street. South side residents have objected to dead-ending Bluff road at the elevation and making a right angle turn to Meridian street, less than a block east, although they are anxious for the elevation program to proceed. It is estimated that the additional elevated bridge would cost in excess of SIOO,OOO and cause further delay. Missionary Is Released SHANGHAI, China, April 7. Bandits have released Miss E. N. Gemmel of Girard. Kan., American missionary kidnaped at Yuanshow, Kiangsi province, advices .said today.

Being an active germicide capable of killing 200,000,000 germs in 15 seconds, full strength Listerine checks mouth fermentation and infection —both ft cause of odors. Then it gets rid of the odors themselves; it is an instant deodorant. Keep a bottle handy in home and office. Use it every day. It puts you on the polite, popular and profitable side.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIKES

MORMON TRAIL I OF 100 YEARS IS CELEBRATED Thousands of Leaders of Faith From Whole World at Conclave. Bv United Brest SALT LAKE CITY, April 7. Thousands of Mormons from all parts of the world were here today celebrating the centennial of the Latter Day Saints church. It was one hundred years ago Sunday, April 6, 1830, that Joseph Smith, a young farmer, founded the Mormon church at Fayette, Seneca county, New York. Salt Lake City, the capital of Mormonism, which was founded and developed into one of the west’s most beautiful cities by Brigham Young and his determined followers, was filled wuth members of the faith. Westward Trail Depicted “The Message of the Ages,” a religious pageant outlining the growth of Mormonism. and depicting the struggles of the founders, was presented Sunday night by a cast of one thousand persons. It will be given nightly for two weeks. The pageant tells of the founding of the church by Smith, who claimed he discovered golden plates buried on a hillside in western New York. He said the plates bore strange inscriptions, which when translated, instructed him to establish the faith. The westward migration to Nauvoo, 111., where Smith was killed by a mob in 1844, is shown. Smith was succeeded by Brigham Young, who led the believers west and founded this city. Pageant Shows Growth Young was the first Governor of the territory of Utah, which became a state in 1896. He was succeeded by John Taylor and Wilford Woodruff. In 1890 Woodruff issued his famous edict against polygamy. Growth of Salt Lake City into one of the great cities of the west and the spread of Mormonism throughout the world is shown by the gi- : gantic. pageant. Exiled Bishop Returns .

CONGRESS BATTLE IS MAD SCRAMBLE

Entries in Seventh District Race Divided in Stand on Prohibition. The Republican race for the Seventh district congressional nomina- j fion today bore all of the earmarks i of a free-for-all as a resu't of the 1 inability of organization heads to draft a candidate suitable to all of of them. Two of the Republican candidates are outspokenly wet, two are dry and two have failed to commit themselves. Archibald Hall, veteran Republican campaign orator and Indianapolis business man. defeated for the nomination in the 1928 primary, has made no announcement or statement concerning prohibition. He was the first to file. Frank E. Wright, author of the Wright bone-dry law, avowed champion of prohibition, was among the last to file. At noon Saturday Wright was declaring publicly he was no candidate. When Wright resigned under a cloud as state securities auditor, at the belated request of Otto G. Fifleld, Wright de- ! dared “under the circumstances of my resignation I would not dare to come out and face the electorate.” Ira Holmes, well-known Coffin leader and election commissioner for several terms, and Ward Hiner, Indianapolis business man. are avowed “wet” candidates. Schuyler Mowrer, Indianapolis attorney and former state inheritance administrator, filed, it is said, as the organization’s candidate. He is a past commander of Irvington post, American Legion; a member of the Forty and Eight Club and is state chairman of the Republican Veterans of Indiana, Inc. The last Republican candidate for Congress to file was Asa J. Smith, also a local attorney. Smith was wounded in action at Belleau Wood while with the Sixth marines.

The ballot this year also will have upon it. an independent candidate for congress in the person of Warren A. Sampsell, Republican chairman of Washington township and well-known Coffin adherent..
